We are looking for a sensible and calm caring male or female aged 22 + to help with our son.
We need someone who is reliable, trustworthy and responsible.
You should be available for the next 12 months and be able to arrive in London 13/14 July so you can settle into the house and London before starting on Monday 17 July with our son.
We are seeking a confident and safe car driver (to drive to and from school), ability to speak and understand English well (because they will need to help our son with his homework). Our son has mild dyslexia and so we are looking for you to be patient and communicative with him and understand how he sees the world around him. He is a lovely charming funny boy and likes to watch documentaries, play in the park after school with his friends and learn about new things.
You will get a free week between 7-11 August. When you have a free week you will still get pocket money but it will be half of your usual pocket money.
By the time you arrive our son will be on summer holidays. You will be expected to look after him and take him to summer camps on some of the days.
We will provide you with a mobile phone.
